Description
Prime 4.74-acre multi-family development opportunity in South Nanaimo, ideally situated within a rapidly growing neighbourhood characterized by newer, high-quality residential construction. Zoned R10 and designated Suburban Neighbourhood in the Official Community Plan, the property offers attractive territorial views and strong potential for a range of ground-oriented residential development concepts. City staff have confirmed a maximum permitted density of up to 23 dwelling units under the existing R10 zoning, based on the surveyed developable area. The OCP supports a variety of low-rise residential forms, including single-unit dwellings, duplexes, tri-plexes, four-plexes, and townhomes, with densities up to 25 units per hectare and building heights up to three storeys, subject to City approvals. A previously approved 14-unit development permit (now expired) demonstrates established development viability, while updated topographical information indicates a larger developable area than previously identified, potentially supporting expanded design possibilities. Technical materials, including topographical surveys, environmental mapping, and related reports, are available to qualified buyers to assist with concept planning and due diligence. Buyers are encouraged to independently verify development potential, servicing requirements, and all necessary approvals with the City of Nanaimo and qualified professionals. (id:63159)

How this is calculated
Amenities: points awarded per category (restaurants, cafes, grocery, parks, shopping, gyms, pharmacies, banks/ATMs, healthcare) based on distance to the nearest one — 3 points under 200m, 2 points under 500m, 1 point under 800m — summed across all 9 categories and scaled to 0–100.
Transit: based on the number of transit stops within 800m and their mode (SkyTrain weighted highest, then streetcar/ferry, then bus). This reflects stop type and count only — our data doesn't include how often a route actually runs, so frequency is never factored in.
Both scores depend on how much of the surrounding area has been synced from OpenStreetMap and TransLink's GTFS feed. A lower score can mean fewer amenities nearby, or simply that this area hasn't been fully synced yet — not a confident measurement of the location itself.

Cash Needed at Closing
Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
